Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of age on long-term mortality and net survival benefit of radiotherapy (RT) for early-stage grade I-II FL. Five thousand three hundred and five patients with early-stage grade I-II FL in the SEER database (2000-2015) were identified. Primary therapy included RT alone (RT, 20.7%), chemotherapy alone (CT, 27.6%), combined modality therapy (CMT, 5.9%), and observation (45.8%). Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) was conducted to balance the treatment arms. Relative survival (RS), the standardized mortality ratio (SMR), and transformed Cox regression were used to compare survival differences between treatments. RT with or without CT had significantly higher 10-year OS (approximately 78%) and RS (>95%), but lower SMR (1.47-1.76), compared with CT (67.8%; 86.3%; 2.35; ps < .001), observation (70.2%; 91.2%; 1.82; ps < .05). RT was an independent predictor of better OS and RS in multivariate analyses (p < .001). No significant interaction between age and RT was identified for RS (Pinteraction = .509) or OS (Pinteraction = .769), indicating similar survival benefits across all-ages patients. RT was associated with long-term OS and net survival benefits in patients with early-stage grade I-II FL, irrespective of age.HighlightsThe pattern and incidence of mortality varied by age-group as elderly patients often die of other diseases other than FL beyond 5 years.Radiotherapy was associated with higher long-term OS/RS and better SMR compared with other approaches, regardless of age.

Abstract
Patients with early-stage nodal follicular lymphoma (FL) may be rendered free of detectable disease by a diagnostic excisional biopsy. We reviewed the management and outcomes of 48 patients with FL, diagnosed from 2003-2013, treated at a single institution. The primary endpoints were local control (LC) and progression-free survival (PFS).Median age at diagnosis was 54.5 years (range 15-74 years). Forty-seven patients were stage I (97.9%); 15 patients (31.3%) had grade 3 disease. Initial management consisted of observation (12 patients; 25.0%), radiation therapy (RT) alone (12 patients; 25.0%), systemic therapy alone (9 cases; 18.8%), or both (15 patients; 31.3%). Median follow-up was 4.92 years (range 0.5-13.83 years). 4-year PFS and OS were 80.9% and 97.1%, respectively. Patients treated with additional therapy experienced significantly better 4-year LC (100% vs. 81.8%; p = .012) and 4-year PFS (86.7% vs. 63.6%; p = .006).Patients with completely resected limited-stage FL would benefit from therapy beyond excisional biopsy alone.

Abstract
Follicular lymphoma (FL) is the most common indolent lymphoma, and it most frequently presents in an advanced stage. Therapeutic considerations for advanced stage are different from those of localized-stage FL, in which radiotherapy (RT) is generally recommended. However, the available evidence suffers from shortcomings that are relatively specific to this clinical entity due to its rarity and long survival with all available treatment modalities, including that most of the existing evidence originated at a time when diagnostic classifications, staging procedures and radiotherapeutic standards were different from those available today and when anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies were not available. Available treatment modalities include observation, systemic therapy only, RT only and RT in combination with systemic therapy. We review the evidence available with each of them and the data from present-day clinical practice studies as well as briefly discuss what diagnostic and therapeutic developments may take place in the next few years.

Abstract
Recent studies have revealed the clinical and biological features of stage I follicular lymphoma (FL), but information about patients with stage I FL who underwent total resection after tissue biopsy is limited. Among 305 FL patients diagnosed between 2001 and 2013, clinical stage I disease was observed in 36 patients. Of these, 18 patients underwent total resection after diagnostic tissue biopsy. We used 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission CT for staging assessment in 13 of 18 patients (72.2%). The median age was 56.5 years. Six patients (33.3%) were male. The soluble interleukin-2 receptor alpha concentration was significantly lower than in patients with residual disease. Among these 18 patients, 7 patients (38.9%) were treated with a "watch-and-wait" (WW) policy, 7 (38.9%) were treated with involved-field irradiation, and 4 (22.2%) received systemic chemotherapy. Patients with resected disease were treated with significantly different strategies from those with residual disease (p = 0.0026). Five patients experienced relapse during follow-up (median follow-up: 48.2 months). All relapses were distant from the primary site, irrespective of treatment strategy. Among all stage I patients, disease resection was not a significant factor for survival (p = 0.9294). Collectively, the choice of treatment strategy was significantly influenced by patient status. Resection status was not significantly associated with survival after several treatment strategies.
